Cristiano Ronaldo has finally joined his domestic teammates. His side is currently preparing for the much-awaited new season. Subsequently, the path to glory has already begun as they kicked off their summer camp in Portugal. While Al Nassr won their initial friendly fixture against Farnese, 5-1, it is CR7’s comments that have caught the eyes of many.

So far, there have been some interesting developments regarding the Saudi Pro League as the transfer mayhem continues. Speaking of transfers, one of Ronaldo’s former teammate took a huge decision regarding his future. Interestingly, the Portuguese superstar refused to comment, which has raised the eyebrows of quite a few in the fanbase.

The summer transfer window continues to surprise enthusiasts. Amid ongoing transfers, Ronaldo’s former teammate and Lionel Messi’s national teammate recently took a major decision. Star player Angel Di Maria moved to Portuguese giants, Benfica, from CR7’s former side Juventus.

Following Al Nassr’s fixture, Ronaldo was asked about his views on the move. Surprisingly, the 38-year-old refused to give any answers. He said, “Di Maria to Benfica? I will not comment about it. If you asked me a question about Sporting, I would answer you, but on that I will not comment it.”

Apparently, the Al Nassr man did it out of love for his boyhood club, Sporting CP, who are the arch-rivals of Benfica. The respect and solidarity he has for the club enticed him to refuse. Be that as it may, it is a pure loyalty gesture from the five-time Ballon d’Or winner. Notably, both Di Maria and Ronaldo shared a locker room together at Real Madrid.

It is Di Maria’s luck that he also got the opportunity to share a locker room with Messi. He was a crucial team player for both of the legendary players’ sides. While Ronaldo may have refused to talk about it, he may cross paths with him eventually.

A reunion for CR7!

Although it’s quite understandable why Ronaldo would have refused to comment, he may still cross paths with Di Maria after all. This comes after looking at Al Nassr’s pre-season calendar. The Jeddah-based club is in contention to play against Benfica. Hence, we may see Ronaldo and Di Maria on the pitch against each other. Prior to this, they will have to play against La Liga side, Celta Vigo.

After this, Ronaldo and Co. will also play the much-awaited fixture against PSG and Inter Milan. These fixtures are also expected to give quite a show to the soccer fans. Recently, Al Nassr clinched a 5-1 victory against Portugal’s second-division side, SC Farense. However, Ronaldo wasn’t in action, as he sat in the stands alongside new signing Marcelo Brozovic to cheer for his club. Perhaps, we will see him on the pitch in the upcoming fixtures.
